In nuce: If you model with Blender, you also have to render with Blender? Not if Aaron Powell has his way! The owner and creative director at Luna Digital has released version 0.4.5 of BtoA (aka “Blender to Arnold”). The add-on is developed by the Blender community and links Blender with Autodesk’s rendering tools.
